It's not available and there is no release date publicly available.

so no rough time span at all? weeks, months, years?

IMO MT5 need to get this feature up and running ASAP as there is MASSIVE revenues to be had.. MT5 will take over the options market as well as the spot market - be quick!!

is there any way i can use the options board even if not to trade options? since the button is there? but it just is never "clickable"

Hi,

In case you are looking to access the Options Board in MT5, you could refer to https://www.metatrader5.com/en/releasenotes/terminal/1010, under Trading terminal. Apparently it is sitting inside Market Watch window.
